I really like what Valve keeps doing with its games. Take for instance the new Team Fortress 2 update Robotic Boogaloo. After June 3rd when you play Team Fortress 2 you will get random crate drops. You can buy a key for $2.50 that will unlock it and reward you with various content created by the Robotic Boogaloo community artists. The revenue will be split amongst the artists and, I imagine Valve.

Its totally cool to see companies invent new ways to put money in artists hands and I applaud Valve for coming up with another way to do it. Checkout the Robotic Boogaloo site below and the "production drone" credits for whom participated in making it.

Come join us Tuesday night to play the new Scream Fortress expansion at 9EST, 6PST, and some other time if you're in other parts of the world. We'll make a post an hour before we start to coordinate, and join the Cheerful Ghost Steam group if you haven't already.

See you tomorrow!

Aw man. I won't be able to join you guys. I won't have access to my computer tomorrow. We should plan something next Monday if you guys are free. I am off school and will have the whole day to do anything.

This makes sense as Valve is working on bringing Steam to Linux and I imagine they will port many, if not all its titles to Linux. I still use Linux as my primary desktop operating system and less reasons to boot back into Windows the better. Still, there are SO many games in Windows I wonder if ill really ever be able to switch?

Does Linux support from Steam interest you? Do you use Linux or is it all Windows and Mac for you?

In a recent Team Fortress 2 update there are some files that point to a possible Linux port.

Anyone here still playing this one? It has been a bit frantic since out went free, but I still pick it up from time to time, you know, looking for hats.

I play a match or two here and there. It seems like a really fun game but (being a noob in the game) I completely suck at it. I typically stick to the Heavy or Soldier class, as I seem to be able to do the least amount of harm to my own team playing those classes. :P

I like to play as nothing but my worst class until it becomes decent and then I start the process over again. I thought I'd never learn how to play as the spy and then *poof* one day it was my highest scoring class.
